Default LS1 pulley set up on a 6.0L block?

I have a 6.0L block out of a 04 silverado in my 88 mc ss with LS6 top half. I want to put a pullely set out of a 02 camaroz28 on my motor. So basically my question is will it fit, and if not what?

Default 6.0 swap

The 6.0 swap is easy.

You need to drill and tap the 6.0 block for alternator mount.

I just did a 2000 LS1 to 2004 6.0 swap.

Are you talking about the bracket pieces that go behind the alternator?

Guess I'm confused now on what you want to do? You taking the entire accessory setup from the fbody and putting it on the 6.0? That should fit just fine with no mods right? If your talking about just using the pulleys truck, fbody and vette all have different offsets unless that year is different. All or nothing.

Someone makes a bracket for the alternator so that you will not have have to drill your block.As soon as I can remember who makes it I will post it up.

Default LS1 to 6.0

The hole that needs to drilled and tapped is on the front left side of the block.

Hold the F body alt mount up and use a transfer punch to mark the spot for the hole.

The rear mount tapped hole for the alt is already there.

The 6.0 block doesn't have a mounting boss for all three alt bolts.
